40 lb Transformation no gym needed!

Mindy Vitale After Online Personal Training ProgramFrom out of shape at 44 to crazy fit WITHOUT stepping foot in the gym!  Mindy Vitale shows that with patience, persistence and hard work  you can get the tight, FITBODY you have always dreamed of…. AND you can maintain it forever!

March 10, 2012~ One year ago today I wrote to Julie Lohre and told her I was ready to change my life.  I was 44 years old and at an all-time high of 177 pounds. I saw a picture of myself that hit me like a train.  I felt old, out of shape and very uncomfortable.  I was so stiff I could barely get my socks on in the morning.

After one full year of following Julie’s training and nutrition plan I’ve lost a solid 35 lbs.  I’ve gone from a size 14 to a size 6.  I haven’t felt this comfortable in clothes since I was 12 years old! Now I bounce out of bed at 4:45 AM, 5 days a week.  I love to work out!

Update – in the last few months, Mindy is down now a total of 40 lbs and feels like a whole new person! She has the tight, toned, fitness model physique she has always wanted and plans to keep it that way with the balanced, healthy lifestyle she has achieved!

 

Julie always keeps it interesting and believe it or not, fun!  (Although sometimes while struggling through an exercise I say to myself, who on earth came up with this one?!) I think I’m not a typical Julie Lohre client.  In her very first email Julie made it clear to me that her programs were designed for someone who has experience in the gym…I had no experience in the gym, at all.  So I needed to learn the lifting techniques using the internet and Julie’s guidance.

Julie of course was always available to answer my specific questions, always.  But the most daunting part of the program for me was the food, I spent hours in the kitchen preparing meals.

So when I started out I was overwhelmed with both the diet and the exercise routines. Now I have a routine in the gym and the kitchen.  I actually crave vegetables, I can’t live without my UMP pancakes and I have no problem drinking a diet coke when everyone else is having a cocktail.  My only goal is to look and feel great for the rest of my life.

I still haven’t stepped foot in a gym.

I do all of my strength training at home with dumbbells, bands and balls. This last year has not been easy.  I’ve cried and I’ve moaned but I never gave up.  Julie is truly inspiring and she made me believe that I could do it.
